The Catskills need a good dump. Can you look into your crystal ball and tell us when that’s going to happen?

I only roll on Schwalbes. I guess if you were 100% on ice and snow maybe the studs would be worth it. Take the wheels off and wrap them in a moving blanket when you stuff it in the car. Otherwise I think it comes down to the siping and the rubber compound. Siping, especially along the sides...

No name on the map so I’m declaring it Cairn Mountain. I descended the north face direct. Steep and deep, with unskied lines everywhere. It’s a lot like Valdez back in the nineties without those pesky helicopters. Everything is extreme when you’re on cross country skis. Back into the...

I got all pumped up on Brownski’s Hudson Highlands XCD TR and then saw the forecast. Not good. I knew I had to act fast before it was all gone. I headed up through Wiccopee to my local stomping grounds in Fahnestock State Park. No parking area or kiosk here. No trail markers either...

Fast flash frozen mid-winter fun. The ice is nice.

Big Sky is a big pile of loose shark teeth. There’s some committing lines especially around the Upper Pinnacles that rot in the sun. They look skiable from below but then you billy goat in and everything slides away and now you’re down climbing bare crumbly rock with skis on to something...

Ropes? We don’t need no stinkin ropes! You know it’s steep when the windshield wipers are on.

What’s with the potty mouth?

Hackledam is looking kinda sendy over there on looker’s left.
